N-no.. I dreamed about the god damn wasteland and some random cyborg punks instead. So close yet so far. I hope she makes it to my dreams this night. Then again if I do dream of her, it might be too painful to wake up and realize she's not here.
Okay guys, going again tomorrow morning, but this time, my first seeing it in IMAX 3D. I NEED to see it like this before it goes out of theaters. I've already seen it four times, but each just in regular. I didn't have the money. Can not fucking wait to experience this.
I remember I helped Alita btfo vector but before he died he told me I would bleed black cock Then I was about to smooch Alita but I went into the bathroom to brush my teeth first and make sure I was good enough for her but I stalled too much and ended up waking up before I could kiss her I'm so fucking lonely and horny AGHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHGGGGGGHHHHHHHHH

Do it user. It's beyond worth it. Going for the third time at my IMAX tomorrow.
Also the last time. It gets bumped out for Free Solo this weekend. :(
Jace Jackson
>HOW DOES IT FEEL TO KNOW YOU"LL WAKE UP NEXT TO ALITA AND SEE HER EYES OPEN LOVINGLY INTERLINKED INTERLINKED
Since we all know it’s the same five or six people making over thirty posts each in every one of these threads...
The only good CGI is CGI that does not look like CGI.
Furthermore, every bit of detail and intricacy is irrelevant, as the movie is objectively less detailed and intricate than the manga. While at the same time having weaker writing.
Luis Foster
No, unless you're a senior (65+) you should pick matinee.
Hunter Carter
WITHIN CELLS INTERLINKED *3 times* God her love for Hugo is so heartbreaking, I wish I was a pathetic spic just one time in my life.
Yes. 90% of posters make maybe one or two posts and leave once the 5-6 reveal themselves as being uninterested in any discussion and hostile to any criticism.
Nathaniel Flores
>The only good CGI is CGI that does not look like CGI. And that's exactly what it was for a fucking change.
>this doesn’t look like CGI because bad CGI exists!!

I acknowledge your shitpost in response to objective fact.
William Nguyen
Convincing some coworkers to go see it right now.
Jace Williams
Hold on tho... Was this better than avatar? cuz avatar was boring af...
Camden Cook
Avatar’s writing was a lot cleaner, to say the least. As alita is a total mess.
Levi Hernandez
Seen the movie several times and it's legitimately a fun movie aside from how Hugo is represented and two scenes in particular, the kiss scene and the apartment scene. Not for Alita's dialogue, but for how Hugo was bungled. It felt like the Hugo casting and writing was mandated by the studio, he even had a sexy shirtless scene, where he should have been presented as a younger, scrawnier kid someone like Finn Wolfhard or even Tom Holland. Seeing it several times also just really made me realise how fucking atrocious whoever they got to be Hugo's acting is.
A little nervous. Keep tracking the box office and I'm counting on that 400 to 450 final number. I can rest easy once it hits that sometime next week. Other than that, broken. Alita is so good, it makes all other films look like shit.
>when you realize just how much hugo meant to her and how much pain she was in losing him >tfw you will never have someone care about losing you that much
Cameron can go to hell, i could've lived without this shit in my life.
It’s a head on a stick in front of a CGI model that looks like CGI that is trying to be realistic. Thus, bag CGI.
Nathaniel Diaz
I liked Zapan. I wish I were like him.
Michael Morales
It is getting there. All we need is another 150 million MINIMUM from worldwide, all countries, and we are home free. Anything after will be awesome to get.
Is reserved seating a commitment if no one else is in the theater?
Andrew Jackson
>bag cgi Hahahaha look at this DOOD this nigga can't even spell
Matthew Reed
I actually like Movie Alita more than Manga Alita. Alita, aside from very few cute moments, turns into a straight bitch cunt after Hugos' death. I ope they preserve BA's Alita in future films.
They will. They also changed Ido to be more sympathetic to how he was in the manga. While it may not capture exactly the tone, I prefer it somewhat.
Cameron Sanders
someone post the wojack edit of this
Andrew Barnes
As long as you're not too far back, otherwise the 3d doesn't pop out as well.
Elijah Morgan
You are just dishonest seriously. If you think this is bad then nothing ever made satisfied you.
Grayson Howard
Something like that would totally end up happening between her and Hugo, he even said that some men feel bothered about having a girl that is way stronger than them, to which she replied: "Well... just make sure you don't get me mad"
>"Hey user, got a few oranges and chocolate for our movie night...and no trying to run from it again! Don't like restraining you but I will if I need to"
Imagine if she broke your arms and legs so you couldn't live without her?
Christian Lewis
Just finished the movie. Didnt like it. The trailer was better. Honestly just fell flat. I did really like the girl and thought she was cool, but it just felt....too transformers and i hate those movies. I wish they went a move martial arts route.
Cameron Bailey
Figure got the happy ending he deserves. Also, would you read a SOL involving these two starting a family either in space or Earth?
He is a good boy and a chad lad. Fight cyborgs with bare hands.
Dylan Phillips
who hurt you user?
Christian Lewis
figure four's...figure is GOALS
Ian Evans
Figure is a very upstanding guy even while losing an arm. He's good for Alita.
Isaac Kelly
Wouldn't it be cool if it was fully posable?
Jace James
>Figure got the happy ending he deserves He deserved prime loli gally. Not old and busted gally.
Charles Cox
Reminder Alita never stops loving Hugo. He is the one she thinks about the strongest near her death.
Zachary Diaz
zodiac is a good example of good CGI. br'49 has some good CGI and a whole fucking lot of bad CGI.
Christopher Cook
Plenty of fights had a martial arts tone. Smart fighting. From using spider cyborg girls momentum against her in the alley. To going after Grewishka's shoulder weakspot in both fights (which doesn't work in the 2nd one). This movie was nothing like transformers except that there are big robots in the motorball scenes.
Cooper Cox
He is boring.
Aiden Russell
watching it tonight too, have fun bro
Luis Powell
It is bad because it looks like CGI. Everyone in this thread, on this board, should be old enough to have seen so much CGI that CGI fails to impress.
Luis Thomas
Post some screens for reference. i want to see what you think is good and bad.
Levi Morris
Not him but the best fighting move in the whole movie was the air drop kick on grewishka at the beginning with the flashback, just the way the camera is angled and how she yells and the sound design and it reminds me of the ending in Spacegodzilla where there's random blue beams shooting out of him before he fires, there should be some audio-visual umph to attacks and blows.
Cameron Garcia
Based James Cameron hates award shows and thinks people don't take them seriously.
You realize you're just confessing that you haven't been on this board long enough to have seen all the "behind the scenes" webms of zodiac and br'49, right?
Nathan Ward
Correction, he thinks people don't take science fiction film seriously as human stories.
Juan Miller
Just post the fucking pictures, man.
Bentley Cruz
ok i'm gonna do it, i'm gonna go see alita tomorrow afternoon by myself.
Ian Scott
Or you could just google it. You'd do that if your goal wasn't to drive as many posts-per-minute to these threads as possible.
Gabriel Roberts
You brought it up. You provide the pictures.
Benjamin Turner
Does the manga ever show what things look like from Alita's POV? Like, does she just see things the same as a regular human or does she see into IR/UV spectra or have some kind of tactical overlay like Jensen and the Terminator?
Julian Reed
Even this was debate club, I'd only need to source if the evidence wasn't readily apparent or easily accessible.
Also, since i have no interest in flooding these shill threads with replies, your insistence that I do just further betrays that you only have on interest in continuing to post in these threads.
Ethan Campbell
Well, ok then. You could have just posted the pictures.
Gavin Myers
Anyone have that screencap of the guy who said he'd eat an Alita blu-ray?
Michael Brown
I remember seeing the trailers and thinking this movie was gonna be absolute shit.
I'm glad you bros convinced me to watch it, movie was fun af and now I want to know more about Battle Angel Alita.
Matthew Perry
Stick with Eisenstein and Melies then... You're just here to shit on something you don't like for personal reasons, but CGI use in this case is clearly a bad reason to dislike the movie.
William Cook
It shifts to her pov a couple of times (once in the rushed ending to the original run, another time at the start of LO) with nothing to indicate her perceptions are augmented in any way.
Austin Morris
>Also, since i have no interest in flooding these shill threads with replies >made at least 5+ replies to one guy >they're not sending their best
Reminder that Jim was one of the closest human beans ever to the Earth's core.
Matthew Lee
okay then, you could've just not given away the fact you only started coming here as a paid shill.
Liam Ramirez
>Also, since i have no interest in flooding these shill threads with replies wow what happened to that?
Justin Bailey
The worst was Hugo trying to tell his crew he was done with them and getting out of the business. I was literally shaking my head in the theatre at how bad his line delivery was.
>You're just here to shit on something you don't like for personal reasons This is hilarious coming from one of five or six shills who constantly spam about how great this movie is... for entirely personal reasons completely unrelated to it's quality.
Also everyone can see the fact that, during the day (prime time) you spam about how you either saw it with your GF or got a GF from it or got the courage to get a GF by watching it, then once the sun goes down, its all about your daddies.
Facts being, its a bad movie and the shilling is not only painfully obvious, but pain inducing.
According to Cameron here, he'd love to keep living in this world for another few films, but it'll come down to if they make ANY money or not. I'd really like to know what his bar is for profit. We know Fox's, but I wonder what his standard is.
sure, if your happiness is a result of getting paid to shitpost.
Charles Campbell
Not sure, this was my 1st one, I saw the other was on page 10. And I'd do it again.
John Fisher
Ah, I see what this is about now, kekeke, you're jealous that you're not getting paid for posting on Yea Forums. hahaha.
Asher Thompson
How are girls enjoying ALITA? Everytime I go they go "awwww" when something cute happens with Hugo and her, looks like they liked it but didn't want the romance to end.
Hey, good point. What have you done to change that?
Joseph Wilson
Those are some THICC as fuck thighs.
Gabriel Stewart
Of the two girls I've talked with about the movie, both actually liked Hugo and the romance, and were sad that he died at the end. But also both thought it was all too fast paced.
Carter Fisher
at least you're not trying to tell me Yea Forums is my secret club
Jace Smith
Um, can I just ask something?
WHY IS CHINA TREATED WITH SO MUCH MORE RESPECT THAN AMERICANS?
China just released these official paintings emulating War Gods, using traditional Chinese drawing techniques. There's like four of these.
If you have watched the OVA, then go in with the expectations of seeing basically the same thing with some extra stuff added from the manga. Sure it's not some kind of a holy grail of cinema and it has problems, but the CGI is great and the action scenes good. Not to mention so far it's the best manga or anime adaptation we have seen from Hollywood so far. And obviously the girl that's god damn adorable and best of all she can act.
Because America has become a place for capeshit lovers with heavy feminist views.
Aaron Rogers
Just came back from seeing it in IMAX the second time, fourth time in total. I think I figured out why I love this movie so much. Based Jim set the bar with Avatar and very few movies even try to meet it. All this capeshit, while I enjoy some of it, feels like they've tricked me into thinking the bar was much lower than what Cameron set it to. I really haven't been this entertained in years. The script is so tight, the world so vibrant and the characters so lovable that it puts movies that are a full 60 min longer to shame. How the fuck did they trick us into thinking The Force Awakens was a good movie?
Nolan Turner
Tweet from James Cameron: >The wait is finally over. It feels almost surreal to say that you can now all see @AlitaMovie at your local joint. >When you see how big a heart Alita has, what she stands for, and how she majorly kicks ass, you’re going to fall in love with her the way I have.
James Fucking CAMERON, director of the two highest grossing movies of all time, and this was literally his waifu vision put to life. I'm not that crazy over the movie like some people in here, but it was 100% honestly the best looking CG/ 3D i've ever seen
its an aggressively mediocre movie that shaves off all the unique bits from the manga and repackages them into a very westernized container, all while rushing through whatever material they decided to adapt.
There were 2 girls sitting in front of me, 13/14 years old, and they went EEW when Alita and Hugo kissed. So cute.
Jaxon Bennett
I truly do love all the trolls who are constantly in here calling Alita trash, they keep bumping the thread and generating more discussion for us. A genuine thumbs up to trolls to keep posting, when we reach general #100 we will have you to thank
If they were trolls they would be trying to make you upset.
The fact is, it is trash. The visuals are weak, the writing is garbage and no amount of spamming will ever change that. Then every time you meme someone into shelling out money for this trash, they're going to be pissed, mostly at themselves, for thinking Yea Forums wasn't totally stuffed with paid marketing.
Eli Diaz
it's a small thing, but I'm beyond happy the Alita crowd is so friendly with the BR2049 crowd. It's a good feel.
>it's all or nothing. This is who I am. kills me each time.
Juan Walker
It's almost like they knew most burgers got shit taste.
Aiden Sanders
Do it, it's worth seeing in the theater.
Adrian Young
Yeah that was my only complaint about the movie. You get so absorbed in the movie, that 2 hours comes and goes and you're sitting there wishing it could go on for another few.
Owen Ross
What is truly crazy is that a guy like that has a waifu. Waifus truly transcend all barriers. They're universal to the nature of men.
Jordan Johnson
They only said they will go see it to shut up your autistic ass, user. They aren't actually going to.
Austin Johnson
I'm really thinking what could they have done differently that would improve the burger numbers and wouldn't decrease the quality of the movie? Could it really just be that americans are genuinly cucked? Remember that black panther made completely unprecedented 700mil in the states and 650 outside
Josiah Lee
Dont be nervous friend. Enjoy the comfiness of iron city generals. Reminder when you look at the rest of Yea Forums , its a fucking cesspool of pedo, sjw, blacked /pol/ shit. This is the place to be.
Nathaniel Scott
>ywn protect that smile Not that it needs my protection, but still...
Unironically I believe this is the case. They knew Burgers wouldn't give a fuck about a Sci-Fi flick. They're obviously not wasting marketing budget there. I'm certain that they pumped a lot more money into Chink advertising than on the American market.
Jace Bennett
This. /abag/ and /cun/ are the best threads on the whole board.
Brandon Barnes
The movie's pretty much completely different from the manga, but I like both on their own. Curious to see which direction they'll take it beyond the first movie if they actually get the chance, because frankly I don't see them doing much aside from cherrypicking a few characters after the motorball arc.
It's just too easy! Come on user, quit fooling yourself and buy a couple of tickets to my movie to see what all the fuss is about. You won't regret it.
It’s funny that we have a deidicate troll in this thread constantly telling us that the movie is trash and we should feel bad for liking it. What a pathetic loser he is. His life is shit and now he wants everyong else to feel the same way.
Nicholas Jones
>I'm certain that they pumped a lot more money into Chink advertising than on the American market. Did Cameron even showed up at US premieres ?
James Hall
We really should start Rob posting on top of Jim. He is the man who directed the film. If it wasn't for him pushing to direct it, it wouldn't have been made. What do you have to say to this man for bringing a literal waifu to life?
This was one of the weakest lines in the film, like they threw it in just for the southpark-tier f-bomb counter. "Stand by" was cheesy, like the rest of the film, but powerful because of how well it fit with her character. "Fuck your mercy" just felt contrived.
Thomas Nguyen
There is no such thing as too much hype for this film
Tyler Turner
Naw bro. Pedo shit is just weird man. Do not ruin alita generals with that trash
Owen Long
That might hold some weight were you not a literal paid shill.
As it is always hilarious to see people who are literally paid (pennies) to mindlessly spam online communities with garbage.
Isaiah Bailey
Hey I'm a firm believer of separate but equal, my man. Each contained to their own, as it should be. Don't you worry your little head.
its literally the exact same tasteless plebs though.
Carter Brooks
Oh, we're going to push for 1000. Until we get to the sequel.
Ryan Moore
I personally bought something like 25 tickets when it was in theaters.
Carson Johnson
I liked Johnson more than Gosling honestly
Dylan Mitchell
its funny to think about how the flop is already in, so these threads will just be nothing but five or six people spamming the same bullshit at eachother mindlessly for another 13,000 posts. Hell, even the paid shills are going to ditch sometime this week.
I have no idea. At least I haven't seen any articles about that, where as he's happily prancing around in China in that recent one. I don't really like the implications of certain genres failing in the US, because this might mean that Asia and the rest of the world gets a more diverse movie market, where as burgers might be left only with Hollywood approved capeshit,nigs and feminist crap. I mean why even bother with the US if they're barely going to cover the marketing costs. Hell it's probably the most expensive place to market in to begin with.
Andrew Taylor
That's nothing. I bought out an entire imax3D auditorium so I could see it alone.
Which was only one ticket, because they only sold one ticket for that showing, but hey.
Tyler White
Because he died TWICE ?
Wyatt Wood
They're two sides to the same coin. Both protagonists suffer immensely and yet, they provide a split. BR2049 is the world as you see it when it's worst. Grim, uncaring, unloving. The world of Alita is the world which you want to to be. Where struggle is rewarded. Where the pure of spirit rise to the adoration of those around them. Neither is true to life, but they're both equally important to remember.
also the nuclear strength of the key waifus in both films helps
Mason Wright
Butchered the manga, hack writing, terrible costume design, Rodriguez Mexicanized The Scrapyard into "Iron City", cut out all the gritty realism. Traded real blood for blue blood. Cut out the entire motorball storyline. Cut out numerous character arcs. Glad it bombed.
Joshua Anderson
He was at the U.S. premiere, but they clearly invested way more in to the Chinese marketing.
>this might mean I have bad news for you user... Of course it means the rest of the world gets a more diverse maket. To begin with we have Hollywood + local movies. When was the last time you watched a German movie ?
Of course local markets are already a thing, but what I mean is that even the stuff made by the bigger names might be straight up aimed for foreign market rather than get an American release. Hope this is the case.
Jayden Harris
Just got back from number 7, every time I've seen it by myself. It's the only way to do it, no distractions
Matthew Richardson
>When was the last time you watched a German movie? 7 weeks ago, I think. t. German
Connor Martin
just got back from seeing it (for the first time) in 3d. Thought it was great, and I usually find blockbuster-type movies boring (haven't watched any capeshit since the first avengers movie). Going to see it again this weekend in IMAX.
>ywn have a qt 3.14 gf with giant kawaii uguu eyes
Nathan Flores
IMAX matinee is wide open for tomorrow. I might be alone.
Hunter Torres
Totally like r e a l i t y. No wonder you fags hate it, you all want a waifu simulator, not a realistic story with 3 dimensional characters who grow. It was fucking hilarious seeing Doc Ido wearing scrubs and Lands End jackets. There wasn't a true "bad guy" in manga, everyone was human with humanity injected into them, but Rodriguez turns everyone into either good or bad with no depth. This was a movie made for children.
Nathaniel Miller
Saw it for the first time tonight and loved it. Thanks for not letting me down, bros, and Alita.
Brayden Johnson
>he reposts marketing copy
Alexander Brown
FRESH FRESH
Cameron Fisher
It's called an adaptation you fucking idiot. You can't adapt a nine volume EPISODIC manga series into a coherent movie trilogy without giving it some kind of overarching plot. More than that, the movie pulled information from throughout the manga - Kishiro made stuff up on the fly as necessary.
On top of that, Alita had very clear growth and a character arc, that was almost too fucking obvious. Did you miss her being born into Ido's daughter's body, followed by being reborn as a more capable and mature young women in her berserker body for instance? Punctuated by how she carried herself throughout?
James Clark
My only solace was believing anime girls would look stupid irl. But Jim proved us wrong. Now there's no reason to keep going
Jim opened up a whole new world. I have more of a reason to keep going.
